    You may have noticed that I’ve added a ‘snack’ category to my family’s menu. Both josh and I are a bit concerned that we’re not getting enough protein, so we decided to add in some high-protein snacks to get us through our days.

    I spent about $11 at the farmers’ market this week. For my money, I got the following produce:
    Two pints of green beans
    One red pepper
    One heirloom tomato
    One LARGE broccoli crown
    Two zucchini

    Okay, and I spent an additional $3.50 on a vegan scone to share with my son! Sue me!
